Chairman McGulro of tho New York
campaign commltteo places tho vote ot
this State for Bryan and Stanchfteld at
from 30000 to 60000 majority This la
practically tho final estimate ot the Statu
leader It Is considered very conserva
tive and Is mado up from Increases ovnp
the last stibernatorlal votes as reported
by local chairmen As far as this State In
concerned this campaign could hardly
bo ended at a better time It has not be
como stale and tho pitch of enthusiasm
now existing for Bryan and Stevenson is
perhaps physically trying There Is foumt
generally an cagernss for tho ballots
to be cast It will undoubtedly be tho
greatest and most numerous ecerelsc of
tho franchise that has ever occurred
here It will bo a popular election in
dominant leader
every sense There Is no
er politically not that the organizations
have bten less perfect than usual but
certainly no otcs aro being cast for
personal reasons other than displayed by
the candidate themsches In Tammany
this Is plainly evident In spito ot tho
paco Croker and hls assistants have
made they havo followed th people In
every step and done tbelr clearly ex
pressed will Tho very largo vote hero
meioly cast for tho Tammany ticket be
cause It was such has dwindled to a
minimum They aro voting for Bryau
now and tboy Intend their ballots to bo
understood as such
The State leaders do not hesltato to ex
press their gratitude to the presidential
candidate for what he has done for their
local ticket The gubernatorial campaign
has been more or less lost sight of
Naturally Mr Brians majority Tuesday
would in all probability mean Its success
as well Under the local conditions ox
Istlng hero It might have been a trying
year if a govornor was to havo been
elected without the Influenco of a Na
tional election But as it is Bryan has
changed all that Following the Tam
man > custom for tho Sunday before oleo
tlon the theaters tonight aro given over
to campaign meetiiigs They are quiet
and serious and are addressed to the In

Lincoln Neb Nov 4 Mr Bryan was asked for a statement as to the probable outcome of the dec
tion and said Thefight has been made and won Money and coercion robbed us of a victory in I896 but
I believe they will be powerless to change the result this time The people are in earnest and very few can be
bought Our organization is much better than it was in 1896 and therefore there is much less danger of
frauds So far attempts at intimidation have been rare this year where they were very common in 1896 and
even where intimidation has been attempted it has angered the employes rather than coerced them
